Jervey

Jervey is a masculine name closely linked to the Scottish title Jarvie. Both Jervey and Jarvie derive from Gervais, a Norman and German last name meaning “old spear” or “spear servant.” Jervey may also have been a title given to those who were “descendants of Gervais,” so if you want to encourage baby to learn more about their familial roots, naming them Jervey could be the perfect place to start! While little Jervey isn’t likely to need a spear to succeed in life, the spear could represent the strength that comes from knowing they’re part of a bigger legacy.
